to say the least. last set was 6-4, but it really wasn't that close. Berdych had a little bit of energy saved for when he went down 3-1 and was able to hold his serve throughout, you could tell he was just gunning to get it 5-4 then try and catch his break there. damn near did it too, the last game ended up going to a couple deuces. novak finished with 2 double faults, i believe 21 unforced errors, and something like 118 points won

i think berdych was at a disadvantage by having a relatively cupcake draw up until that point. novak played pretty stiff competition considering he is the number 1 seed. in his post match interview he said he didnt go to sleep until 5 am after the wawrinka match, woke up at 230 and took an ice bath with lleyton hewitt then called it a day, woke up this morning and wiped the court with berdych. he's pretty much the fricking man

berdych looked pretty dangerous at times, but he got worn down mentally by just being thoroughly dominated for the majority of points. not much he could've done to win really, djokovic was painting lines on nearly every shot. it was pretty disgusting

well he and lleyton took ice baths in the same room, i doubt the same tub but the way he came out extremely fresh 2 days after the grinder smells of lance armstrong red blood cell doping. i'm usually the most sore 2 days after, but he's also in much better shape than me
